Peds Quiz 1 Flashcards
Behavioral observational audiometry using the sucking response can be obtained from______
Infants who are hungry
Infants are expected to localize in all direction by age…
12 months
True or False control trials are suprathreshold stimuli presented at a level at which the infant previously responded.
False
True or False VRA follows a stimulus-response-reinforcement paradigm.
True
True or False distractors are used in conditioned play audiometry to keep the child centered.
False
True or False in conditioned audiometry, a response is defined as performance of the desired motor behavior within 3 to 4 s after the onset of the auditory stimulus.
True
The auditory system become functional around:
20-25 weeks
True or False In VRA it is recommended to start the test at an intensity level of 60 dB.
False
What is true about hearing loss in children?
Children with minimal hearing loss may have difficulty hearing soft speech or that at a distance greater than 3 feet
What is false regarding electrophysiological testing
Is a direct measure of hearing, it is NOT a direct measure of hearing
True or false when testing very young children, a good protocol is to start at 2,000 Hz in one ear and then move to 2,000 Hz in the other ear. Then repeat at 500 Hz.
True
True or False In VRA, no reinforcement is necessary
False
All of the following can result from mild hearing loss in children with the exception for:
-Inattention in classroom setting
-Language delay
-Omission and distortion of speech sounds
-Vowels can be heard clearly
-Will benefit from FM system
Omission and distortion of speech sounds
Of the following sounds, which one is most likely to be produced correctly by a child who has a profound hearing loss
/b/
True or False The use of two reinforcers in VRA improves conditioning success and maintains the child’s attention longer eliciting more responses.
True
